Maine Boats, Homes & Harbors was founded in 1987 (as Maine Boats & Harbors) to look at life on the Gulf of Maine with a special focus on boats, and the people who build and use them. Unlike other boating magazines, Maine Boats, Homes & Harbors covers all aspects of maritime life - food, homes, art, wildlife, history, and cruising.
Over the past 21 years, our readers have proven themselves to be active buyers of boats, boating gear, water-front homes, marine art, Maine antiques, high-end travel services and food.
With over 20,000 readers who love Maine's handsome boats and scenic harbors, Maine Boats, Homes & Harbors delivers a quality audience for the discriminating advertiser.
